El Día de los Reyes Magos is January 6, and this simple reading and glyph is the perfect lesson plan for your first Friday back to school after the New Year.
Students read a one-page passage in Spanish about el Día de los Reyes Magos and then complete a page of comprehension questions and a glyph (learn more about glyphs here).
If you use this resource in January, teachers will likely find that it is appropriate for Spanish 1 students that are accustomed to reading paragraph and possibly page-length texts in Spanish. Otherwise, it would be a better fit for Spanish 2+.

This is a great resource, the questions/coloring part at the end was very engaging!

A great resource to use before or after the winter holidays break. They found it engaging and learned a different perspective on how others celebrate. If you can, follow up with them creating their own shoe and filling it with stickers, candies, etc. They loved it.

Loved this resource. I used it with my 6th graders and they loved it! I liked the reading and the activities that came with it. It was perfect for my "Holidays and Celebrations" unit! Muchas gracias! Please keep making resources like this, simple, clear, and fun!

My students LOVED this lesson and since then have been asking me to color anytime that they can. This tradition was one the best ones we did and was perfect for level 3.

Loved the reading and activities. I put the reading into a slideshow with only 1-3 sentences on each slide and photos to improve comprehensibility. Students were engaged.
